Program:
Johann Sebastian Bach (1685-1750)
Cantata BWV 16: "Lord God, we praise you"
Jan Dismas Zelenka (1679-1745)
Te Deum ZWV 145
Choir and orchestra of the Bach Ensemble Lucerne
"Lasst uns jauchzen, lasst uns freuen!" ("Let us shout for joy, let us rejoice!") the choir and solo bass blare out to the audience in tutti aria no. 3 from Bach's cantata BWV 16. A true aural spectacle! The opening chorus features the Gregorian "Te Deum" in German, which Bach artfully developed further. In addition to the cantata "Herr Gott, dich loben wir", the "Te Deum" by Bach's contemporary Jan Dismas Zelenka will also be performed. He is considered the most famous Czech Baroque composer. His music is unconventional and combines strict counterpoint with virtuosity and strong expression. Choral and solo movements alternate in this composition, a feast for everyone involved!
Soloists:
Olivia Widmer-Allemann, soprano
Stephanie Szanto, alto
Timothy Löw, tenor
Benjamin Widmer, bass
Franz Schaffner, conductor
